Enum ContentType

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<ContentType>

net.named_data.jndn.ContentType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<ContentType>

public enum ContentType
extends Enum<ContentType>

A ContentType specifies the content type in a MetaInfo object. If the content type in the packet is not a recognized enum value, then we use ContentType.OTHER_CODE and you can call MetaInfo.getOtherTypeCode(). We do this to keep the recognized content type values independent of packet encoding formats.

Method Detail

values

public static ContentType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (ContentType c : ContentType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static ContentType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
